There is a never ending cycle in life and it is cause and effect.
Every cause has an effect and every effect has a cause. This is congruent with the Slight Edge principle I recently posted on. In a nut shell, every decision that we make falls either on the success curve or the failure curve.
Our daily actions are either bringing us close to our desired outcome or farther away, there is no way to remain stagnant in life. The masses subscribe to procrastination in hopes things will just work themselves out. They have built a house on the failure curve. This is why by 95% of people by the age of 65 are dead or dead broke. Only 5% of people can live the rest of their life in financial comfort!
Personally, this is just mind boggling to me, with the vast array of business opportunities in the world so many people just settle down into their comfort zone and don’t take advantage of the abundance that is out there. But, I will spend no more time discussing what could be if people changed, as Jim Rohn would say “Why would you signing up for that class.”
I put an extremely high value on education, not a traditional education, a “real education.” The education you get when you get out into the trenches and experience life. Find out the effects of making a certain number of sales calls, attending multiple networking events, meeting X number a people a week, exercising X number of times a week, reading X number of books a year, listening to valuable audio programs from people you find successful. This is the education that will show you an exponential return on investment. These are the causes for many of the effects we aspire to have in our lives.
Stop rolling the dice, success is not by chance. Study success and model the behaviors of those who have achieved what you aspire to and you will never be disappointed as long as you press on never accepting failure.
Good luck and God bless.
